Researchers have gained new insights into the development of the light-induced ferroelectric state in SrTiO3. They exposed the material to mid-infrared and terahertz frequency laser pulses and found ...

While the material strontium titanate (SrTiO3) has shown immense potential as a photocatalyst in solar energy conversion, it is unclear whether chemical defects can influence its properties. Now, ...

(a)This is a light emission from SrTiO3 mesocrystals obtained in a 24-hour hydrothermal reaction. A weak light is seen equally throughout apart from the crystal edges. (b)This is a light emission from ...

Thermoelectric materials have gained considerable attention for harvesting energy from the waste heat liberated from electronic devices, industries, automobiles, and power plants. However, achieving a ...

A recent study published in Advanced Science introduces a novel catalytic approach known as flexocatalysis, which uses mechanical strain to induce electric polarization and drive chemical reactions.

Applications of nanoparticles have dominated numerous fields such as pharmaceutical, cosmetics, biomedicine and electronics. This article will elaborate on the properties and applications of strontium ...

A Chinese-led research team has generated powerful electron beams with unprecedented efficiency, a scientific breakthrough that could rewrite Albert Einstein’s Nobel Prize winning theory, according to ...

The general formula for a perovskite is ABO3 where A and B are cations. The easiest way to visualize the structure is in terms of the BO6 octahedra which share corners infinitely in all 3 dimensions, ...

Researchers at the Max Planck Institute for the Structure and Dynamics of Matter (MPSD) in Hamburg, Germany and the SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory in the United States have gained new insights ...
